Monument To Smile @ Rockefeller Center
Between sunset and midnight every night until June 9th, Rockefeller Center is showcasing a massive public art project by Agnes Winter.
The project is called Monument to Smile and will project 250 smiling faces onto the facade of the Rockefeller Center building.
Photographer Agnes Winter’s “Monument to Smile” features photographs of New Yorkers of all ages grinning across 50 floors of the landmark 30 Rockefeller Plaza, a 1930s tower that dominates the midtown Manhattan center.
The photographs are beamed from 12 projectors set up in a department store across the other side of Fifth Avenue from the Rockefeller Center, a complex of several commercial buildings set among a large, open public space.
If you’re in the neighborhood, do stay for the enormous display of happy people. Enjoy!
